Specific Positioning of Customer
Starting position / Positioning:
Place the forearms on the pad symmetrically. If necessary, grap the handle. The standing leg should be slightly bent
and the foot should be placed parallel to the marker on the foot plate. Place the right foot on the moveable footplate
and the toe should flush with the edge. The inclined trunk should have a straight back. Stabilize actively the core and
trunk muscles during exercising.
Movement description:
Start the movement by giving pressure on the footplate and extend the leg but not completely. After that bring the
leg slowly and controlled to the starting position. The movement starts a little in front of the standing leg (depending
also of the range of motion).
Special note:
Avoid an evasion of the knee. It should be a straight-line movement. Give special attention to the pelvis that not a too
much of lordosis or sidewards flexion happens. Make also sure that the right standing leg does not extend beyond
the central marker in the range of motion of the left leg.
